Invisibleness

Yes, I'm making up words now! But, we've all felt it. You say something at a normal volume, and nobody responds. You might as well have not said anything! You've either been on the ignored or the ignoree side. I know you have. Let's hear it. What did you say, who ignored you or who did you ignore (don't name names, just a general idea), when and where was it, why did you do it? We want to hear it. VENT PEOPLE VENT!

I found these inspiring and I hope you do too.

I wanted attention and I wanted to make a spectacle of myself because I couldn't stand to be ignored. - James Ellroy (Mystery Writer)
K's Opinion: Remember Everyone deals with being ignored differently. Some accept it, others rebel against it.
There's a lot of mediocrity being celebrated, and a lot of wonderful stuff being ignored or discouraged- Sean Penn (Actor)
K's Opinion: You are the wonderful stuff! Let them celebrate that average, unexceptional person! Remember who you are and who your friends are! By the way: Mediocre means average. I've heard it used several different ways, but the true definition is average. 
Nothing in the world is more dangerous than sincere ignorance and conscientious stupidity. - Martin Luther King Jr. (I sincerely hope you know who this is!)
K's Opinion: MLK Jr. says it best. Being ignored or being ignorant are both dangerous. You could be missing out on some awesome wonderful people by being ignorant! Also, in my book ignorance=stupidity. So, if you're ignored remeber: It's their loss, not yours.


Okay, I decided I'll write rules in Purple to distuinguish them from the rest of the blog. And as always: Comment about what you want to discuss!
Rule #2: Being ignored feels awful. Don't let someone ignore you, no one on this planet is worth more than anybody else.
Rule #3: This is for those people on the other side of the glass. Don't ignore someone. Listen to what they have to say. You'll often find it's worth it.
